Fear of a Treatment Plan

It seems that one of the most common complaints we hear from consumers of chiropractic care is the experience of being "sold" a plan of treatment.  Often this plan involves an extended (at least 12) number of visits with a number of services, amounting to what might be thousands of dollars.  Some chiropractors might resort to "scare tactics" to motivate the patient to buy into their plan, even suggesting they get a loan to finance it.

Unfortunately, this not only creates stress for the patient, but also a bad reputation for the chiropractor.  If that doctor has been manipulative (no pun intended), they deserve the bad reputation. Sometimes the temptation is to generalize and consider all chiropractors to be like that particular doctor.  That said, in some cases, it would not be unreasonable for some people to need at least 12 visits over many weeks to many months for recovery from painful and disabling conditions.

Not everyone needs a treatment plan and for them we offer “as needed” care on a treatment by treatment basis.  Our most requested visit includes soft tissue therapy along with the adjusting, while some choose to schedule a visit which is more brief and involves only adjusting.  Please discuss your wishes with one of our doctors.
